LFS on the Island?
Brad,
I think Christy has her reasons for thinking and feeling as she does. I know I had the same feelings shopping in Vic. I haven't been to the new store but until time has passed and it is a proven success and that one of it's owners has changed their stripes, I think Christy has a good reason for feeling that way. Discussing prices back and forth in front of a customer, disagreeing what the type of fish is and then going for the higher price with her in earshot, isn't very good business practice IMO.
But that is just me.
Don't come down on Christy. She wasn't harsh in her statement. She was honest. She said it as it was. If the owners of a store did something like that in front of me I would walk away and let others know what had transpired. It is one thing to be a bit disorganised when opening a new store. It is another to not know what you have in stock and have a difference of $15.00 between the two owners in the price of that fish and let a customer hear those disagreements, then charge her the higher price.
It is very exciting that there is a new store in Vic.
I hope it is all that it has been built up to be.
Vic needs it.
